Yes they are, you have to pick some crap out so you get to the adjustment screw, they are made by Weber.
Either that or a Sard, either are a good bet.
Do NOT get one of those utter wank FSE ones.

nothing wrong with fse impo. have you actually ever had one with a fp gauge? i ran one for 2 years and there wasnt much wrong with it. i think youve been reading to much vauxsport coz everyone with an internet connection says the same and halve of them havnt actually ever ran the products they say are wank. (hipercrit i run a sard one now)

 I haven't been on Vauxsport in ages.
To answer your question, no I havent personally had one as I have always been aware that they are shit, they do not operate in a normal way ie. certain amount above MAP. Mates have had them and I have told them to bin them, after they gradually dropped pressure they eventually listened.
Cheap crap IMO.
Why did you bin your FSE for a Sard may I ask?

Interesting. I've had 2 FSE ones; both on TBd engines though so no vacumn connected obviously;
First one; ran 3bar for 2.5years; pressure gauge connected all the time. Never dropped.
Second one: Same setup, been going for 6 months and still not moved...
